Soccer politics in the DMV what club does it right?

[Anonymous]

The politics around this area and the girls who clearly shouldn’t be representing there clubs is deafening. Is there any club better then the others?

Politics in the DC area? The horror!

Seriously, people around here are used to buying senators. Buying a spot for their DC representing "there" club is hardly a scandal.

Clarification. It appears favoritism in soccer on the girls side is insane here in VA. I was wondering if there is any club that keeps politics out of equation allowing for better opportunities to make it to the higher levels Guess I want to know the best clubs to join politics free and the ones to stay away from?

You think it doesn’t exist on the boys’ side ? Look at the USMNT. It starts young.

I am sure it happens on both, however I have a girl so I am wondering if anyone has an input on which club does it at all right

Shop around if all the clubs say the same thing live with it.

What are you talking about? Simple question, can you answer it? Which clubs are politics free? If you can’t answer that don’t respond!

All the clubs have some politics because they are run by people. But for the most part the players who are rising to the top are the ones who work the hardest and show consistent improvement and ability to compete or stand out against their peers.

VDA has clear favorites and it is PWSI heavy on the girls side (PWSI and VSA merged to make VDA) They have one coach (Awful) that talks in the other coaches ears and pushes the ones he wants playing, these players are at best just fast and physical but have no technical ability or soccer IQ. FCV has the same it’s totally pay to play over there and the parents that are rich call the shots. Both FCV and VDA keep sending the same players to all these training centers that never go to the next level and over look the real talent due to there never ending politics and pushing agenda. Go out and watch some of there games I promise you will see what I am referring to. Mostly on the VDA side however you will see players play full games with no vision losing the ball over and over again and playing kick ball. exception for them is the 06 team they have a great team all the others are losing or squeaking by due to their midfielders being awful and coaching politics. Nothing changes on either team so stay away unless you are a “favorite” you won’t get recognized. Go to bryc or McLean in my opinion they play there best no matter who it is and except the girls to earn play which at this level is what it should be. Every club has there issues but those two clubs in my opinion are the worst. Hope that helps! Good luck!

At some levels correct, but not for every kid on the team. The top 1/3 no doubt they are starters. 2/3 are pretty good but being challenged to move to the top 1/3. Last3d is where you see politics and favourites being played over the top kids on the second team. These are below “squad” players who could easily be replaced but are kept on for a variety of off the field reasons.
